Axis

The Axis is a perfect
out-of-the-box cyclo-cross race bike, light-touring bike or
go-anywhere road and fast commuting bike. One of our favorite bikes,
it can easily go between road and dirt for a most versatile ride
with few boundaries. We use light and strong Easton UltraLite tubing
and shape the tubes to the race-proven Cross Concept dimensions. New
for 2005 are the added sizes of 57 and 59cm, to fit more riders.
Carbon fiber fork with eyelets for fenders, if you choose. There are
also threaded eyelets for a rear rack, making this the ultimate race
on Sunday, commute on Monday bike.

Available with 44cm frame.

Now available as frameset.
